Awhile ago DPC had a challenge in which you were supposed to have the motion blur in the background while the main subject remained in focus. I never got around to entering it, but the idea interested me. I also like to take candids, and somehow I came up with the idea of taking snapshots of people in their cars driving by. This woman was one of my victims, and by the look on her face, an unwilling one.

Don't you just love getting the looks of disgust from people... sometimes, like here, it can really add to your shot; she looks really irate...

I love the pissed off look on her face! lol that is great. Nice job with capturing that while getting the motion blur in the background.

I admit, that's the same expression I get if I see someone pointing a camera at me! Yet how else do you get good, natural candids? The b&w and and the somewhat angry expression on the driver make an excellent combination.

Yup, she does look rather menacing! I wonder if she always looks that way when she drives or if she actually saw you? In any case, very interesting shot!

Very nice motion blur but the shot is made by the absolute look of mistrust on the womans face

What an expression! She should be watching the road and not you...

Yeesh. Make sure you lock your doors at night -- if she ever finds you, you are a in deep doo-doo. :) Good bw, and excellent job panning. That is difficult for me.
